Here’s just a little note to hopefully give you a little motivation to stick with your program through the Holidays. Ironically enough, this major Holiday Season is timed right before we all start making our New Year’s Resolutions. And also ironically enough, it seems that its during the Holidays that most people put on extra weight that they wouldn’t have put on any other time of the year. So as a rebound, their New Year’s Resolution is something like “Get back on track with my fitness goals” along with resetting goals entirely. So while it may be hard, why not just stick with your plan as much as possible even through the Holidays? Yes, you may get some funny looks and some funny comments from your friends, but at least when New Years rolls in you’ll feel confident that you finished the year out strong instead of giving up at the very end. Perseverance is the key!
Good luck, and be strong through the Holidays!
No time, no equipment? - No Excuse - by Jeff Wilson
Everyone of us feels like they can’t get out and ‘just do it’, at least on occasion. Here’s some tips that can help you drop your excuses an use the little time you have to get in a good workout.

Losing your shoes can help you workout longer and bring into play muscles you were never aware you had.
Induction Destruction: The Perils Of Diving Into Strict Diets Head First - Tom Venuto
One thing that almost all mainstream popular diets have in common is an “induction phase.” This is often done for the scientific-sounding reason of “making the metabolic switch” from “carb burner” to “fat burner.” However, “induction” is simply a politically correct way to say you have to crash diet and starve yourself in the beginning… which is a one way ticket to eventual weight regain and metabolic destruction!

How Many Calories To Eat A Day - Joseph Tierney
One of the main reasons why so many people have become overweight in the West is due to their eating too many calories. The consumption of more calories than are burned each day means that the body stores the extra calories as fat. The modern diet certainly allows a person to eat well beyond the calories they need to maintain their weight
We all need to be able to make the distinction between just going to the gym to lift weights, or actually weight training or resistance training. While the wording sounds the same, they are two completely different approaches to your workouts in the gym. One of the most important questions you need to is this - why are you lifting weights? Are you trying to gain more power and strength, or are you trying to actually build a better body? The reason this question is so important to answer is because you have to approach your workout differently depending on what your goals are.
What Is the Goal?
Setting your goals or sights one what you’re really trying to accomplish is the first step in deciding if you are just lifting weights, training for strength and power, or training like a bodybuilder. Maybe you’re just going to the gym to try a burn a few calories and get a good feeling because you’re actually exercising. If that’s the case, then you are just going to the gym to lift weights. There is nothing wrong with this, at least you’re doing something! But, without considering yourself to actually be in ‘training’ and working out that way, you probably won’t hit the goals that you may have set. On the other hand, if you have set a goal that you want to hit a certain strength level, then you need to train for that. Same with training for more of a bodybuilding type goal (gain more muscle, get ripped, or whatever your goal is).
We’ll go into more details about this in the next week or so, but the first step is to decide what you really want to accomplish. Once you know that, then its time to really start to visualize yourself attaining your goal and working hard to accomplish it. If you really want results, don’t just go to the gym to lift some weights - put yourself in training mode and get some results!
